seakitten Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 Looks like Bonnie's ahead, but we haven't heard from Mary Beth (& a few others) yet. I've got a Singer that we could give as the prize. Sandra -- if you're having a yard sale, put me down for one of the featherweights!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moonwoman Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 boy do i feel better!! I thought that I was really obseesive because I can't get rid of anything I have now. I did give away my mom's singer futura a long time ago I gave my janome gem to my daughter because I had it out of the case once in a whole bunch of years. so that leaves me with my bernina 930(my second one) I sold the first one I hadapplicqued sweatshirts for a couple of years and from what I hear it is still going strong bought the new one in 1987 my bernina serger bernina 153 doesn't get out much bernina 450 with embroidery and i just traded my 2002 milli for a 2010 with quilt glide, didn't get bliss but did invest in a hydralic(that doesn't look like it is spelled right) lift.

I have; A Janome 9000 circa 1998( I've always had Janome domestic machines, this is my third purchase but the others were sold/given away). A Singer treadle in cabinet made in Scotland in 1947, works perfectly. Given to me last year by a work colleague of my husband's. I was absolutely thrilled!
